Summary
Liverpool's Metro Mayor is standing for a third term on 2 May. He's already led a fascinating life, starting out as a bricklayer, then being an MP and Jeremy Corbyn's PPS before becoming the Metro Mayor for the city he loves.

Plus who has the better music... Liverpool or Manchester?
(Manchester, obviously)
